Topics covered in this video: 1. Diagnosis and classification: Diagnostic criteria for diabetes and prediabetes, HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose, and oral glucose tolerance testing. 2. Glycemic targets: Individualized HbA1c goals, time in range, glucose monitoring, and prevention of hypoglycemia. 3. Lifestyle and nutrition: Medical nutrition therapy, physical activity, behavioral interventions, and weight management. 4. Pharmacological management: Metformin, SGLT2 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists, insulin, and other glucose-lowering medications. 5. Type 2 diabetes treatment: Choosing therapy according to glycemic control, cardiovascular disease, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, obesity, and hypoglycemia risk. 6. Insulin therapy: Principles of insulin initiation, basal and prandial insulin, treatment intensification, and safe glucose management. 7. Diabetes technology: Continuous glucose monitoring, glucose meters, and automated insulin delivery systems. 8. Cardiovascular and kidney protection: Evidence-based risk reduction, blood pressure management, lipid management, and cardiorenal protective therapies. 9. Obesity management: Lifestyle interventions and pharmacological approaches to weight reduction. 10. Screening and complications: Retinopathy, diabetic kidney disease, neuropathy, foot disease, and other important complications. 11. Special populations: Individualizing diabetes care according to age, comorbidities, treatment burden, and risk of hypoglycemia. Who should watch?
